function, either by the circuit breaker
not moving to the OFF position at all
or by doing so in a slow or delayed
manner, the generator should not be
used. Stop the generator as described
in Stopping the Generator on page 24
and take it to your nearest authorized
Westinghouse service dealer.

function, push the circuit breaker switch back
upwards to the ON position. Close the cover and
